American Flags
American Flags posts cover the Stars and Stripes from a few different angles. Articles look at the formal flag code, the meaning of the thirteen stripes and the gradual addition of stars from 13 up to the current 50, half-staff protocol on national days of mourning, and how flags should be folded and retired. Other pieces deal with historic versions like the Betsy Ross design, the Bennington flag, and the variants flown on military installations. Posts here are written as plain explainers, not as ceremony scripts or political commentary.
